Listen to the demo songs:
Twilight Shine
Listen to Twilight Shine ^ Deby Ellis, vocal
MARGO:
Twilight shine
Live the joy and love the joy
It be mine, twilight shine!
Men have come and men have gone.
Heart weighed down with muted song.
On my knees, no answer above.
When it left my hands, at last there was love.
Twilight shine
Live the joy and love the joy
It be mine, twilight shine!
Slapping me down, each day at a time.
Each get up was getting harder to find.
It dawned on me, it's ain't that hard,
The bottom has answers, here in my heart.
Now you might say a lot of blood has crossed my door.
Pain and suffering have been here a plenty.
If it's one thing I count on, it's that we'll be let down.
RICKY:
But this blessed mystery ain't that bad, ya see,
Just let it flow through you, around you, and let it be.
GAYLORD enters from left right stage:
Go on believe your nice cozy dreams,
But these wretched lies are not like they seem.
There's no saving grace in the deep of the night,
You're just left alone with the demons you fight.
And any love and forgiveness is your delusion.
Don't you remember that time as a child,
Tucked away so deep but it's always alive?
Over the years, like the back of your hand,
This hole in your heart, you don't give a damn.
And you don't know it's there, yet it lingers, it lingers.
The soft bottom of my heart, I know not where it lies.
The grace that may be here has ways to hide.
So I stick to the surface of things, before I feel the pain.
If I collapse, get burned or bleed, will I learn to ever love again?
MARGO:
You ain't gonna get rid of it,
To name the nameless,
To know the unknowable.
Or number the infinite,
Or uncover the mystery.
Take a freedom ride, reach for the stars,
Don't cover your blemish, deny your scars.
New heights are here, let yourself go.
Trust in your heart, the love it knows!
Twilight shine
Live the joy and love the joy
It be mine, twilight shine!
Live the joy, oh twilight shine!
Love the joy, oh twilight shine!

Gaylord privately regards Margo and Ricky with disgust, Helen with pity, and leaves the stage.HELEN:
